This paper provides a summary of the physiological relationships between sympathetic nerve activity and cardiovascular or electrodermal responses in humans.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The paper summarizes results of micro‐electrode recordings of sympathetic activity in human muscle and skin nerves. The nerve activity was correlated with blood pressure, plasma noradrenaline, electrodermal and/ or plethysmographic activity. Baroreflex and thermoregulatory mechanisms were studied as well as effects of arousal or emotional stimuli.
